[K12OSN] NFS Problems

[Peter Scheie]

Jim-
You are correct: NFS exports are on a per-filesystem basis.  To make 
/dev/sda1 remotely mountable, Daniel needs to explicitly export that 
filesystem.  (I was doing this sort of thing on HP-UX until just 
recently, haven't core-dumped all my HP knowledge yet; ;-))
